Filter by:Ketones esters have shown to improve mitochondrial function and are currently use to enhanced functional performance. As Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the proposed mechanism of neuronal injury in Parkinson's disease, the study aims to assess the tolerability,side effects and effect of oral ketone esters in Patients with Parkinson's disease.
The primary purpose of this two-part study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of SAGE-718 and its effects on cognitive, neuropsychiatric, and motor symptoms in participants with Parkinson's disease mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI).
The hypothesis is that the differential extent of microstructural damages in the affected brain regions can be specific to the disease of interest and could reflect the clinical severity. Therefore, we propose that the whole brain parcellation of diffusion MRI can be used to improve the diagnosis and prediction of clinical outcomes in Parkinson's Disease. 1. A regression model between clinical severity and two-year clinical outcomes and diffusion properties from multiple parcellated regions will be developed. 2. Blind validation will be performed.
This study aims to explore the feasibility and effectiveness of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) in reducing anxiety and/or depressive symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and caregivers of people with PD.
The consequences of COVID-19 in these already fragile patients should be evaluated. It will be important to appreciate the confinement consequences imposed on the patient on the course and impact of the disease. These consequences can be assessed by the end of confinement and 6 months after the latter is lifted.
The efficacy and safety of rotigotine in the treatment of patients with early stage of primary Parkinson's disease
Neuropsychiatric fluctuations (NF) are among the most disabling non motor fluctuations in Parkinson disease (PD). The investigators developed the NF-scale for acute assessment of non-motor neuropsychiatric fluctuations between the off- and on-medication conditions in PD. The main goal of this project is to validate the NF-scale in french language in a multicenter approach.
A double blinded randomised placebo controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of probiotics on constipation symptoms and whole gut transit time in patients with Parkinson's disease.PD patients with constipation were randomized to receive a multi-strain probiotic (Lactobacillus spp and Bifidobacterium spp at 30 X 109 CFU) with fructo-oligosaccaride (FOS) or placebo (fermented milk) twice daily for 8 weeks. Primary outcomes include changes in the presence of constipation symptoms using 9 items of Garrigues Questionnaire (GQ), which included an item on bowel opening frequency. Secondary and exploratory outcomes include whole gut transit time (WGTT), quality of life (PDQ39-SI), motor (MDS-UPDRS) and non-motor symptoms (NMSS).
Parkinson's disease burdens an increasing number of elderly populations in the country. Parkinson disease is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder, affects approximately 1% of the population by the age of 65 years and 4% to 5% of the population by the age of 85 years. Mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease leads to Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) for which currently there is no drug therapy. The existing treatments for PD were associated with side effects and does not offer complete cure. Hence there is a need of alternative therapy which can prevent or delay the onset of PD with less or no side effects. Vestibular stimulation is known to modulate cognitive processing, enhance learning and spatial memory. Vestibular dysfunction is present in PD patients. So long term vestibular stimulation may be effective in enhancing cognition by reducing the cognitive, neurodegenerative, neuroinflammatory changes and behavioral deficits observed as predictors of Mild Cognitive Impairment in Parkinson's disease Dementia. In this project, the plan is to administer electric vestibular nerve stimulation to PD patients which might be effective and ideal treatment with minimum or no side effects in the management of Parkinson's disease.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of multiple ascending iv doses of MEDI341 in male and female subjects with Parkinson's Disease.
